Loading required package: RGtk2
Error in loadNamespace(name) : there is no package called ‘RGtk2’
In addition: Warning message:

Answer 1

You need the package RGtk2 for rattle to work. Follow these steps to install rattle:

install.packages(‘RGtk2’)
library(RGtk2)
restart rstudio
install.packages(‘rattle’)
library(rattle)
rattle() – starts the GUI.
